Job 9:14-16

New International Reader's Version

¹⁴ “So how can I disagree with God?
    How can I possibly argue with him?
¹⁵ Even if I hadn’t done anything wrong,
    I couldn’t answer him.
    I could only beg my Judge to have mercy on me.
¹⁶ Suppose I called out to him and he answered.
    I don’t believe he’d listen to me.
